    The forms don't ask what you do. If they ask say farmer or student or something. Don't tell them you are a professional poker player whatever you do.

    When they ask you on the Visa Waiver Form if you are coming to the states planning on commiting a crime say no.

    Don't say you're a farmer ffs that's one of the worst things you could say lol.

    Even visiting a farm can get you into trouble.:D

    As long as you say you're on vacation they really don't care - but don't say farmer if asked

    We have 4sq ft left on the 3rd couch. Prices are per person per sq ft per hour. We may have reduced rates for couples wishing to share 2 sq ft but we can't guarantee you'll be beside each other. Bathroom time slots will be available upon check in.

    "spy".

    the immigration nazis at the gate will informally ask you what you do although it isnt on the form so have an answer ready.

    working for an online poker site isn't a good answer at the moment :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 991 ✭✭✭ZZR1100


    self employed in construction is probably your best bet if asked.
    btw nick i missed you in cork but if you need any info on computer set up/ pm


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,247 ✭✭✭ROCKMAN


    nic

    Nicky, ignore the others.... I have the same problem. I tell them I run a webdesign company which is what they seem to have me down as on their computer (I doubt they have a record on you unless you have been invovled with the feds or civil rights or crime before). Tell them you do whatever it was you did before you turned pro.

    tell them you're an immigrations official, you'll get preferential treatment.
